Welcome to the World, Baby Tia-Lee


Eighteen days new and just an absolute dream in the studio this morning — Tia-Lee, it was such a special pleasure having you in today.


Tia-Lee came in with mum Shyanne, dad Brett and big sister Tahlarni and for me this session was extra special. I had the pleasure of photographing Tahlarni as a newborn and seeing her walk back through the studio door as a proud big sister was just the sweetest thing. She was wonderful throughout the entire session and the photos of Tia-Lee and Tahlarni together are going to be so treasured by this family.


Tia-Lee settled straight into her session from the very start and slept beautifully for most of the morning, only waking for a quick top-up feed mid-session before drifting straight back off again. She gave us all the time we needed to work through a gorgeous range of poses, props and colours and the collection she has coming her way is just stunning. We also captured some beautiful family photos with Shyanne and Brett that are going to be so deeply cherished.


Shyanne and Brett, thank you so much for coming back and trusting me with Tia-Lee's newborn session. It means so much to be your photographer again. Tahlarni, you were an absolute star and Tia-Lee, you are so tiny, so perfect, and so very loved. 🤍
